My life-changing annual event, The Summit of Greatness, is happening September 12 & 13, 2025. Get your ticket today!

Jimmy Donaldson (MrBeast) sits across from me, and within minutes, he drops a truth bomb that stops me cold: "If my mental health was better, I wouldn't be as successful as I am." Here's someone who's planted 23 million trees, fed 42 million meals, and built a billion-dollar empire before age 30, yet rates his current mental health a 5 out of 10. This isn't your typical success story about balance and wellness – this is the raw, unfiltered reality of what it takes to change the world at scale. He reveals how 1,000 consecutive days of mastermind calls with fellow "freaks" transformed him from an awkward teenager with 8,000 subscribers into the most-watched human on the planet, and why the loneliness of extreme fame once had him hiding in airport janitor closets. You'll walk away understanding that greatness isn't just about individual achievement – it's about the conscious choice of who you surround yourself with and how that single decision can exponentially alter the trajectory of your entire life.
